Well into the second week of NaNoWriMo and it's hard to believe it's only been 9 days. I've already worked my way through 3 worlds… Well – I've managed to get started on three of the stories in my collection. Finishing them is another story. Y...

And I have a related confession to make… I'm still on the fence about it. Partially, mind you. Like…one butt-cheek's worth. No. Less than that. A toe. Ye...

Although I love book stores in all shapes in sizes, I can’t help but hold a special place in my heart for small press. Publishers, presses, magazines and writers alike – I’m more than happy to spread the word. But don’t let the moniker fool you. While ...
